North Texas Crime Commission: Scam Jam 2007 Conference

Recently I had the opportunity to hear a presentation on the efforts of the North Texas Crime Commission (NTCC - http://www.ntcrimecomm.org).  The NTCC's mission is to bring together the law enforcement community at all levels (local, state, and federal), media, and citizens in the fight against crime in communities throughout the Dallas/Ft. Worth (DFW), Texas metropolitan area.

I'm grateful the DFW area has a dynamic organization like NTCC and local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies willing to share information and cooperate openly with private industry and the general public.  In a post September 11 world we live in, it is imperative that the general public, private industry, and the law enforcement community work together to provide safer communities and contribute to our national security efforts.

The NTCC is sponsoring a community event called Scam Jam 2007, which is open to the general public (free admission) on June 2, 2007 from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.  This event is focused on how everyone can protect themselves from fraud and identity theft.  With permission of the NTCC, I'm posting a copy of the brochure for this event, Scam Jam 2007.  Click this link to Download ScamJam2007.pdf  to view the brochure announcing the event. The keynote speaker will be U.S. Congressman Pete Sessions.

It is good to see private industry, concerned community outreach organizations such as NTCC, and the law enforcement community work together for the good of every citizen.
